[muhammad_2013331]

Dear Members;

I have to give a calculation to someone, can someone please confirm this, we require only 1G uplinks:

WS-C2960L-8TSLL-RF: 8x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 2x1G (1 port) SFP (Fiber)

WS-C3750X-12S-S-RF: 12x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)

WS-C3750X-24S-S-RF: 24x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)

WS-C3850-48XSFS-RF: 48x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)
C9300-24S-E: 24x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)-C9300-NM-4G
C9300-48S-E: 48x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)-C9300-NM-4G

Waiting eagerly for your kind replies.

Hello,

 - Take a look at this link : https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-3560-x-series-switches/eos-eol-notice-c51-736139.html 

Cisco will end supporting 3750 series this year, I think you should go only for 3850 series for MLS

 - Cisco will end supporting 2960 series in 2024, it advise to take a look at 9200 series (Nowaday it still ok)

 - I don't know about 9300 series but it seems great

No one, I mean NO ONE, should be "going" for the 3650/3850.

Dear Community Legend,

Please explain why not. 

Thanks

C9300-24S-E: 24x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)-C9300-NM-4G
C9300-48S-E: 48x10/100/1000 Ethernet ports (No SFP Needed); 1x1G (4 port) SFP (Fiber)-C9300-NM-4G

on the uplink Module for a Longer run, i go 10GB X 8 port uplink module. ( still, support 1GB SFP, in the future you can replace easily with 10GB - if the costing same )

Also, look for UXM Model got different port speed and support mGig ports.
